ExSitu is a dynamic collective of artist-researchers that has been exploring the intersection of art and science since 2010. Founded by Barthélemy Péron and Fanch Dodeur, the organization emphasizes a creative process that merges research with artistic expression, often utilizing scientific tools and digital methods to unveil the inherent poetry within these disciplines. ExSitu is deeply committed to the values of free culture, believing that knowledge and nature should be accessible to all.

The collective engages in various projects, including interactive sound installations like Phonosynthesis, and performance art such as Héliophonie, showcasing innovative techniques involving plants, sensors, and multimedia elements. They also hold workshops, temporary laboratories, and exhibitions, blurring the lines between art practice and scientific inquiry. With a focus on environmental themes, notably seen in their exploration of coastal landscapes, ExSitu is not just a platform for artistic creation but also a critical space for questioning societal norms and the role of technology in our lives.
